Validation of Compressibility Test Systems for Friction Materials

2021-01-13

CURRENT

J3079/1_202101

This SAE Recommended Practice (RP) applies to the validation process for test systems used to measure deflection (compressibility, creep, or swell and growth) of friction materials and friction material assemblies. The materials or assemblies can fit passenger cars, light trucks, and commercial vehicles equipped with hydraulic or air brake systems, using disc or drum brakes.

Deflection Measurement for Friction Materials Using Segment Applicator

2022-06-13

CURRENT

J3231_202206

This SAE Recommend Practice specifies a method for measuring the deflection of friction materials and disc brake pad assemblies in a manner more consistent with classical material compressive strain testing. This SAE test method differs from SAE J2468 in the preload and maximum load applied to the test sample when deflection is measured. It adopts the material applied stress levels found in ISO 6310 (0.5 to 8.0 MPa) using a 25 mm diameter flat plunger.

J160_200110

This performance standard specifies a universal method of measuring the dimensional change of friction materials to determine the effects of temperature. The test applies to both disc and drum type linings commonly used in automotive and truck type braking systems.

DETERMINING THE SPECIFIC GRAVITY OF BRAKE LININGS

1969-02-01

HISTORICAL

J380_196902

Specific gravity is a nondestructive test used as a quality control check of the consistency of formulation and processing of brake lining. Specific gravity alone shows nothing about a lining’s ability to develop friction or to resist fade when used as a friction element in brakes. Specific gravity varies with the formulation of the lining. The specific gravity of sintered metal powder linings, particularly those which have steel backing members, is usually determined somewhat differently. Reference ASTM B 376 “Density of Sintered Metal Friction Material” (latest revision).1 The specific gravity and the range of specific gravity are peculiar to each formulation and, therefore, the acceptable values or range must be established for each formulation by the manufacturer.

Hardness of Brake Lining

CURRENT

J2654_201508

Hardness measurements are used as a quality control check of the consistency of formulation and processing of brake linings. This hardness method is nondestructive. NOTE—This method is not a measure of friction level. The hardness and the range of hardness are characteristic of each formulation; therefore, the acceptable values and ranges must be established for each formulation and may be affected by processing. NOTE—The hardness of sintered powder metal lining is usually determined with Rockwell superficial hardness equipment. (See ASTM B 347)

CURRENT

J840_201711

This SAE Recommended Practice covers equipment capabilities and the test procedure to quantify and qualify the shear strength between the friction material and backing plate or brake shoe for automotive applications. This SAE Recommended Practice is applicable to: bonded drum brake linings; integrally molded disc brake pads; disc brake pads and backing plate assemblies using mechanical retention systems (MRS); coupons from drum brake shoes or disc brake pad assemblies. The test and its results are also useful for short, semi-quantitative verification of the bonding and molding process. This Recommended Practice is applicable during product and process development, product verification and quality control. This Recommended Practice does not replicate or predict actual vehicle performance or part durability.

This SAE Recommended Practice is intended to provide a uniform means of identification which may be used to describe the initial friction characteristics only of brake blocks (see SAE J660, Brake Linings) for use on commercial vehicles. NOTE: It is emphasized that this recommended practice does not establish friction requirements for brake blocks, nor does it designate other significant block characteristics which must also be considered in overall brake performance. The basis for determining the friction coefficients for brake blocks are tests conducted in accordance with SAE J661, Brake Lining Quality Control Test Procedures.
